Hampton Golf Village Course Review

The Clyde Johnston designed layout offers rolling fairways, wetlands areas and a challenge, particularly for players who have problems getting their tee shots airborn. Several tee shots require carries of close to 200 yards from the blue tees to either reach the fairway or clear a hazard, with the white tees still a solid test although 450 yards shorter. The hilly terrain keeps things interesting from tee to green, with the course in excellent condition for its opening. Distance is a factor on a handful of stout par 4s, particularly the punishing 18th, but the par 3s are on the tame side and there is mininal trouble around the greens, the 18th one of the exceptions.
